Note to anyone looking at the Stebro stainless J-pipe
for their exhaust.  I bought one for my Syncro.
Fit was fine.  Dummy that I am, I did not notice that
an emission testing port is not mentioned or shown
on the web site, nor when I called to order.  My
mechanic pointed it out to me after it was installed.

I had to take it to a local exhaust shop and have one
welded in for $45.  It, of course, isn't stainless.  :-(

Frank has since mentioned to me in email that they
sell them with the port installed.  If you are thinking
of a Stebro J-pipe, remember the emission port!

(Frank:  I think you ought to add it to the web page.)
